Cadw's description
Location
Overlooking the Menai Strait at the far end of Lon Pwllfanogl, off the Brynsiencyn Road (A4080).
History
Probably early C19, listed as a house and garden in the tithe schedule for the parish of Llanedwen in 1844 and later used as an inn serving passengers crossing the Menai Strait by ferry. Included in Slaters Directory of 1880 as the Boat Inn, now a private house.
Exterior
Two storey 3 window range with 2-storey wing to rear. Built of random rubble masonry, the rear wing rendered; modern slate roof with rectangular brick stacks either end. Front entrance elevation is symmetrically planned with central doorway. Windows are slightly recessed sash with glazing bars, 16 pane ground floor, 12 pane first floor with central window a later insert, the space formerly occupied by the Inn sign.
Reason for designation
Listed as a good example of an early C19 vernacular house type of local character and detail which it retains almost unaltered.
